In one of our religion class we were asked to talk to somebody about God. I pick somebody in our neighbor whom i wanted to share God. I was so young then, not knowing that it is what we called street evangelization. I think i already wanted to talk to him, when i learned he had passed away. I was hit hard from this experience. Sabi ko, sana when he passed away nakilala niya si Lord. As i am sharing this, now i realized how could he not know Jesus. His parents name Him Jesus.

There are time when our Lord calls us to share his love to others and not realizing it.

Today is a day for peace. let us bring bridge to broken relationship. God is the only way. life is short. enjoy life with love.

May your soul rest in peace. From this experience, it gives me more reason to share God to others. Yes God is alive and is so real.

I went to denounce the church because of too much politiking. it was in the 80’s. i refer to call our bishop. Cardinal Mortal Sin.
I went back to church when the Lord touched my heart with a miracle of the Holy Eucharist and the rest is history. it changed me.
i served our church and i have met a lot of good priest with pure intentions. I met and served some who got astrayed too. It hurts me. but did not made me stay away from our church. because even in his weakness he has guided and took care of his shepard.
Let us pray for our church and our priest.
This is one of the moment where are church need us.
Prayers for our priest including each one of ut to be more purified. Life is not about us. its all about Jesus.

Praying that may each one be in God’s Love and mercy in the Holy Eucharist.

WHAT was your prayers I asked one of my friends. Told me that I prayed for peace, happiness and understanding. Continued telling me that she takes care of cancer patients before and took care each one of them with love. SHE DOES NOT SEES COLOR, AGE, THEIR STATUS, THEY ARE ALL THE SAME, AM OLD AND HAPPY. SHE is presently a dialysis patient. I hold her hands while she told me about the passing of her husband year ago and that some day they will be once again be together as he is always in his heart. WITH A BIG SMILE IN HER EYES SHE SAID THANK YOU Reflecting on this. Life is short, be a blessing to others.. Love one another as I have Love you says the Lord That is likewise my prayer for my family and friends. MAY GOD bless you all and may the love of the Lord be in your heart. Before the end of the year I’ll be sending gift to the children in Zamboanga. MANY THANKS FOR ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN SUPPORTING THIS PROJECT. SEE SO MUCH JOY IN THEIR EYES. THE SAME JOY THAT CHRIST JESUS HAVE WHEN WE SHARE OUR BLESSINGS. MERRY CHRISTMAS

and inner voices. Miraculous events are common occurrences in the worlds of the Old and New Testaments and the lives of the saints are especially marked by this divine favor. God’s request that His servants go on pilgrimage is first mentioned in Genesis when Abraham left for Canaan. Jacob received a similar request and the Jewish people’s exodus from Egypt was another example. After Solomon, the Israelites were required to make a journey to the sanctuary at least once a year. Fulfilling the law, the Holy Family made this annual journey as well. Their pilgrimage is recalled in Luke 2:41-47 when Jesus was discovered missing during the Passover trip to Jerusalem.

But in our own time, the Eternal Father seems to be calling upon ordinary people. The last century, in particular, was rich in numerous appearances of the Blessed Virgin Mary; and Jesus Himself is said to have spoken to a few of the seers. The Lord’s messages remind us that Jesus has been offended by humanity’s sin against His Sacred Heart. His Blessed Mother, Mary calls humanity to prayer, repentance, conversion, peace, and a renewed devotion to the sacraments, especially the Eucharist and Confession. Our Lady’s messages implore a return to her Son as she lovingly reminds us of the endless mercy and love which are available to all.

Just went on a pilgrimage trip to the Holy Land during the first week of September. It was a life changing experience. There were many times of when I personally experienced God’s presence in our journey, which was different and unexplainable as we follow the footstep of Jesus through the Bible.

I went to this trip from the invitation of a friend named Maria.

She has been in this pilgrimage many years. I could certainly see her view when she told us this was something different and spiritual. Our Priest, Father George Palamattathil agreed as well.

Father George

Often times I asked myself, “am I a tourist or a pilgrim longing to be with Him?… Moments in the Promise land?…. who am I … where am I going….in relations to our God? Now I ponder on many questions. Questions asked and answered from the sincerity of one’s heart to give and share with others. You and I are His hands, His feet…we are His body….the body of Christ! This is a grace you and I have the opportunity to give… for the glory and honor of God….graces in action…. remember we were all called to live in His image and likeness!

There are many things that had happened that until now has amazed me. It is definitely worth sharing it to all of you. Please be with me in reflecting any message the Lord might want to convey to all of us.

1. HEART in the WAVES

THIS picture was taken by a friend Mr. GEORGE REYNOSO, Servant leader of the St. Basil Catholic Charismatic Community of Vallejo, CA.

Dear pilgrims , Many aspects of our lives change…. In Christ we become…..

2. HEART at the Dialysis center in Israel.

Maria has her own experience with the heart and this is her story…

“I had to go for dialysis. A young male nurse hooked me up to the machine. However, blood was accidentally spilled on my shirt, seeping through my concealed garment. I went home and thought nothing about it. I thought it was part of the design, but low and behold…. the blood turned into the shape of a heart….”

A heart full of love….that He

will always be there….. turn around and you will find Him there…..

From the message of Marichu our co pilgrim to Maria.

Church of Holy Sepulchre a heart shape lamp light

From Wikepedia;

The Church of the Holy Sepulchre[b] (Arabic: كَنِيسَةُ ٱلْقِيَامَة‎‎ Kaneesatu al-Qeyaamah; Greek: Ναός της Αναστάσεως Naos tes Anastaseos; Armenian: Սուրբ Հարության տաճար Surb Harut’yan tač̣ar; Latin: Ecclesia Sancti Sepulchri;[c] also called the Church of the Resurrection or Church of the Anastasis by Orthodox Christians) is a church in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem, a few steps away from the Muristan. The church contains, according to traditions dating back to at least the fourth century, the two holiest sites in Christianity: the site where Jesus of Nazareth was crucified,[1] at a place known as “Calvary” or “Golgotha”, and Jesus’s empty tomb, where he is said to have been buried and resurrected.[2] The tomb is enclosed by the 18th-century shrine, called the Aedicule (Edicule). The Status Quo, a 250-year old understanding between religious communities, applies to the site.[3][4]
Within the church proper are the last four (or, by some definitions, five) Stations of the Via Dolorosa, representing the final episodes of Jesus’ Passion.

Picture of my wife Carol holding a candle forming like a heart.

During the last Mass that we had, the final song was And will raise you up on the last day. It was to my surprise, I saw this photo frame of Mother Mary and Jesus being carried.

As we journey thru life…many events happened…We scatter seeds, plant them and help them grow….to become the best we can ever be….with God on our side and center of our lives, marriage and profession…. and seek His “Shekinah” glory!!

All praise and glory to God!

In my little ways,

Dear John

As we reached the top of the Holy Mountain….

I saw the burst of sunlight… shown to all pilgrims was the image of the “Star of David” so sacred to many… the Jews,, Muslims, and even the gentiles…. a star that follows the virtue of humility and sincerity of the he

art ”

Now this is the burst of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

What is this? One may ask? “This is the burst of the sun . The first sunrise

Seen at the peak of Mount Sinai mountains …..the magestic glory of His glory….

In the middle of the Sun, there is an image of a young angel with outstretched arm…beckoning a new beginning….a new life….

Giving glory to God!!.

A wonlder !….forever!

“Holy Transfiguration Monestary”

The stone where Jesus stood during His transfiguration….

As you look closer at the stone u will see an image of a face , His face looking up to the high heavens… far to your left u will see a luminous image of our heavenly lady….
